constant positive airway pressure (cPAP) is the predominant noninvasive therapyfor the
obstructive sleep apfiea syndrome (OSAS). The average pressure thereby applied can be
reduced by online-identification of respiratory events. Oscillatory impedance nieasurement
äs an ifidicator for airway patency can identify central and obstructive apneas and
hypopneas. Our goal was to reduce the sensors needed, to auto-calibrate the Signals to
each individual patient and to rule outpatient induced artifacts.
